Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to filter the values of a dropdown to change them from post ID to post title?
I’ve seen this https://gist.github.com/rmorse/7b59b45a14b1ca179868 but php is not my strong point and so I’ve hit a brick wall.
Currently my dropdown is populated with a custom meta field and is displaying the associated post ID’s. I’d like to change those ID’s using get_the_title(); to instead show the post title.
Please can you offer any advice on how to do this?
Thanks

You’re almost there.
First, you have only 1
=
in the firstif
statement.So it does the code for every single field – this needs to be changed to a double
==
Second, I think likely you got the fieldname wrong – see here on how to get the correct fieldname:
Here is your code updated (and I’m guessing the field name is from meta data, otherwise you need to find the name as link just above:
<?php function filter_input_object($input_object, $sfid) { if(($input_object['name'] == '_sfm_workshop_location')) { foreach($input_object['options'] as $option) { $option->label = get_the_title($option->value); } return $input_object; } else { return $input_object; } } add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'filter_input_object', 10, 2); ?>
Thanks
